Tuesday

By Lou Gibbons

What if your second chance arrived in the form of an odd email, a stranger with big ears and unplanned trips to Iceland every Tuesday?

Dave Welch used to tackle international rugby opponents. Now, he's wrestling a failing civil service job, growing family pressures and a serious case of midlife drift. When he's given three weeks to bring a company to Wales-or lose his job entirely-Dave is forced out of his comfort zone and into a world far stranger than he expected.

Just as a promising lead with an American auto supplier emerges, a mysterious invitation to a greentech conference in Iceland throws everything off course. Enter Sal: an enigmatic arrival with oversized ears and even bigger secrets. As Dave stumbles through awkward business meetings and existential detours, he begins to wonder-could this odd journey be exactly what he needs to start living again?

Tuesday is a feel-good, sharply satirical novel about reinvention, purpose and the strange paths life takes when you finally stop procrastinating. Perfect for fans of The Midnight Library, A Man Called Ove and The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared.
